I feel incredibly grateful to have evolved over the last 42 years into work that I find deeply meaningful, satisfying, often fun, and full of opportunities to engage with people in mutually supportive and healing ways. Life is challenging, and mysterious, and the older I get the more I realize the interconnectedness of humans, the planet and all it’s life forms - the visible and invisible realms. I also have experienced challenges and wounds, and through that have sought healing and how to live a life of service that nourishes myself and others. Along the way I have participated in therapeutic support groups, immersed myself in the study of environmental education during 2 years of living and studying in nature, completed a Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters in Transpersonal and Counseling Psychology. I have experienced parenting, partnering and family healing in deep and profound ways. In my own history I have lived the transformation of a family of origin wracked by intergenerational trauma into a family system of imperfect but loving mutual support and cooperation. I have studied, practiced and taught biodynamic craniosacral therapy for 24 years, and learned so much about how with enough support our bodies, minds and spirits have an incredible ability to heal and thrive despite difficult imprints and trauma. And for the last 10 years in the study, practice and teaching of pre and perinatal psychology, I have understood at deeper and deeper levels how unmet developmental needs, attachment wounds in our very early history, ancestral trauma and cultural stress can impact our capacity to have healthy, loving intimate relationships with ourselves and with others…to feel a sense of trust and safety within and without. And I have learned firsthand, in my own healing and in supporting others to recover and find health and resilience, that it is never too late to engage the upward spiral of health and recover from pain, disease and trauma.

My work currently involves individual somatic healing sessions, individual in-person biodynamic craniosacral therapy sessions at my Redwood City, CA office, and distance biodynamic craniosacral integration sessions online or by phone.
